Clarizen Continues Gaining Momentum with over 150 New Customers in Q2We are thrilled to see so many new faces around here, our new customer acquisition rate in Q2 surpassed even our own expectations. And what is also super exciting is our expansion rate, or customers who purchased more seats for their teams. Having Clarizen adoption spread within an organization is the best vote of confidence since it is our customers who know us the best and sell the platform to their co-workers.
Clarizen’s Roadmap ViewClarizen’s Roadmap View gives real-time visibility into your deliverables across all levels of your organization. Version 4.8 extends Clarizen’s Roadmap View, transforming it to a planning and execution tool by making it completely interactive allowing you to drag and drop work items, and collaborate on work items by adding notes and discussions. The improved visibility allows you to execute more effectively by being more responsive to events as they occur, in real-time. The new dynamic Roadmap view allows you to customize the way you view relevant data. By selecting the most important tasks and milestones in your projects to view, you can quickly react and respond to the items on the roadmap. 
Resource Load SimulationClarizen’s new Resource Load Simulation feature will give you a direct view into the future at the availability of your resources post assignment. By simulating what/if scenarios, you can see how different resource assignments will affect the resource load in the future and gain insight into your company’s capacity and ability to deliver and execute. In addition, Clarizen’s templates let you take all the experience you have learned through the trial and error in past projects and directly apply it to new projects. As they say, never make the same mistake twice. 
Request ManagementIn Clarizen V4.8 we have expanded the scope of Change Management to now include Request Management as well. Request management allows you to manage new requests, change requests and new ideas from within the Clarizen platform.
